are most black powder revolvers made in Italy? I'd think China or Korea would be the main producers.

China is certainly the bigger industrial force, but Italy perhaps has the stronger Firearms Heritage, with Beretta dating back to 1526.

I kow it's a niche market, and that's probably the reason why...but they copy everything else.

The Italians have been in the replica firearm business since the 1950's.

Don't give the Chi-coms any ideas, they're making everything else now.
